Is there a way to make Centos 4.1 show you the shutdown steps it is executing without having to hit a key on the keyboard (such as in Fedora Core 2 or Red Hat 9)?

If you edit your /boot/grub/grub.conf you will see the following entry on the kernel line: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-xxx ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet (xxx is the actual version you have and smp, etc.) If you remove the rhgb and quite it will have the desired effect on shutdown ... but it will also have an effect on startup. Also, during the shutdown, until X stops and shifts to console, you won't see any of the steps, but all will show once X exits. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Tried it last night and that did the trick! :-) Thanks Johnny!
